Tonight's Pick:
The SoftLightes / The Changes / Dead Ponies @ Silverlake Lounge ($8) – Here are three bands that I haven’t seen, but I’m very curious about. I was always aware of the Incredible Moses Leroy, but I never got around to listening to them. The main guy behind that band, (Ron Fountenberry) is also the main guy behind The SoftLightes. As I write this, I’m listening to their new record (out 2/13/07 on Modular) for the first time. Several of the songs have a Postal Service vibe (he even sounds like Ben Gibbard on some songs) while some have that heavily processed ELO/Mr. Blue Sky voice and some are just mellow indie pop songs. It’s all really listenable and makes me curious to see him live. The Changes are a super catchy guitar pop band from Chicago. I like what I’ve heard from them. Download The Changes’ “When I Wake” Dead Ponies are a local heavy (in the shoegazer way) band that you’ll probably like if you like Darker My Love. I’ve heard they’re a really good live band.
